  • Inside USA Gymnastics
    inside USA gymnastics It has been wonderful to see current and former national team athletes continue to excel on various stages. Not only are they world-class in their sport, but many of these athletes also represent outstanding ambassadors and role models each and every day. If you watched the NCAA Championships for men and women, you most likely recognized many national team members in the spotlight. On the women’s side, 2004 Olympic Silver and Bronze Medalist Courtney Kupets helped guide her University of Georgia team to its fifth consecutive team title. Courtney also won the all-around and at least shared a portion of three of the four event titles, plus won the Honda Award for the second time. Other former national team members who finished top three in the all-around or on an event at NCAA Championships were Susan Jackson, Carly Janiga, 2004 Olympic Silver Medalist Courtney McCool, 2006 World Championships team member Ashley Priess and Cory Hartung. At the men’s NCAA Championships, Oklahoma’s Steven Legendre won the all- around and two event titles, while Glen Ishino, Paul Ruggeri, Chris Brooks, Tim Gentry, and Thomas Kelley also placed in the top three in a variety of events. 2008 Olympic Team members Justin Spring, Kevin Tan and David Durante were coaches for Illinois, Penn State, and Stanford, respectively, with Stanford winning the men’s team title. Spring was recently named associate head coach for the Illini. Check out this issue for full coverage of both the men’s and women’s NCAA Championships, as well as the USA Gymnastics Collegiate Championships.
